Redmine

Can you be more specific about what you want to add to the project nav bar?

Well where the current Wiki icon is linked to the Wiki module we'd want to link off to an external wiki. I am gathering the nav bar isn't customisable like that. I was also seeking feedback methods to integrate an alternative wiki.

Thanks

Not sure what to tell you. If your existing docs use a subset of restructured that maps well to the redcloth wiki, then you should be able to write a translator to format your code and add it to your project. I've done that with mediawiki pages, and it works fine. The MVC architecture makes writing the script fairly easy. I can give you the code if you want a starting point (I actually started with the wiki translation code from the migrate_from_trac.rake file).

If there's a restructured parser implementation in ruby, you might be able to hack it in. look at ./lib/redmine/wiki_formatting.rb file, and the ./app/helpers/wiki_helper.rb code to see what's being done currently.

Sadly there is no RST parser for Ruby. If there was I'd add RST as another text formatting option along with Textile.

But thanks for your feedback. I'll have to look at alternate methods to do this.

Cheers
